Dear Valued Customer,
We regret to inform you that due to circumstances beyond our control, AMainHobbies.com cannot complete your pre-order of the Team Associated RC10 Classic Kit - ASC6001. Due to limited nature of this release, A Main Hobbies went deep and in June, committed to enough kits to fill pre-order demand with a few more to spare. Unfortunately, worldwide demand far exceeded the production order and A Main Hobbies was notified this afternoon that we will not be receiving any additional shipments. At 4:00 p.m. PST today, we will make 100% of what we received available to our customer base.
As enthusiasts and racers ourselves, we are sincerely disappointed with this outcome and look forward to exceeding your expectations in the future.
Best Regards,
Leif Ostberg, V.P. of Customer Service

Wow, at $332.00USD for the re-re modelsports definitely marked it up but they seem to be one of the last standing in terms of stock so I guess they can do it.

£209 ($332) is the lowest prize I've seen it in the UK
That's the prize they've sold it at all along
You forget that we Europeans have to pay import tax of everything from non EU countries like China and USA
I paid $250 + shipping + $100 US Dollars in import tax for my RC10 Classic from a non EU country

Don't count out Hobbytown - I walked into our local HT and bought one right off the shelf. They had two and one was on hold. And a friend of mine in Aurora, IL says his local HT has 5 on the shelf. Seems their regular clientele isn't all that interested...
